Grand-daddy always said when he was 17He met the girl, the one in all his dreamsAnd man that was it was it he never once looked backHe found something he just knew was gonna lastAnd if you ask him bout that dayHe'll just tap his chestAnd say

That's how youWhen it grabs a hold and won't let goAnd you feel like she's always been in your soulAnd as time goes by she's still surprising youThat's how you it's trueWhen a new love feels oldAnd an old love feels new

He said I walked up to her doorAnd I was shaking like a leave there on her porchTil she flashed that smile at meSon she took my breathe awayAnd she still does to this day

That's how you knowWhen it grabs a hold of you and won't let goWhen you feel like she's always been in your soulAnd as time goes by she's still surprising youThat's how you know it's trueWhen a new love feel oldAnd an old love feels new

And now I finally see just what he meansCause that's how I feelNow that you're with me

That's how I knowCause you grabbed a hold of me and won't let goAnd it feels like you've always been in my soulThat's how you knowWhen it grabs a hold and won't let goWhen you feel like she's always been in your soulAnd as time goes by she's still surprising youThat's how you know it's trueWhen a new love feels oldAnd an old love feels new
